CWLab Backhaul Bash
Back to Agenda
CWLab, the Broadband Wireles industry’s real-world consumer reporting and independent equipment testing organization, will present an exclusive Pre-WiMAX
Broadband Wireless Backhaul Equipment Review Workshop at the WiNOG this August in Park City, UT.
Presented by Anton Kapela, this session will provide an independent 3rd party comparative review, based upon REAL-World implementation and field testing, on the capabilities of various high-capacity broadband wireless backhaul and bridging solutions available on the market today. Presentation material will give participants an in-depth and comparative “nuts-and-bolts” view of “the good, bad and ugly” or each system. Each backhaul system presented will undergo the following implementation scenarios and comparative testing criteria:
1. Measurement / Comparison Criteria
- Product Overview / Pricing (MSRP)
- Physical Implementation Overview
- RF PHY Overview
- Operational Overview
- Management Overview
- Manufacturer Performance Specifications
- "Real-World" Testing Results
2. Real World Field Implementation Scenarios
- 50 foot "controlled" Lab Setup (for best-case
benchmarking purposes)
- 5 mile Line-of-Sight Real-World Setup
- 30 mile Line-of-Sight Real-World Setup
- 5 mile Non Line-of-Sight Real-World Setup (if
applicable)
3. Performance Testing Criteria (to be performed and
documented)
- Maximum One-Way, Non-Application TCP Throughput
- Maximum Two-Way, Non-Application TCP Throughput
- Round-Trip Time Measurement
- Round-Trip Time Measurement of Maximum One-Way,
Non-Application TCP Throughput
- Round-Trip Time Measurement of Maximum Two-Way,
Non-Application TCP Throughput
- Round-Trip Time Measurements in the presence of
Constant-Bit-Rate Packet Flows
